Park & Pipes - Whistler Blackcomb: Brian Finestone's Park Report - Feb 29, 2008
By: WhistlerBlackcomb

The level of skill being displayed in all of the Whistler Blackcomb Parks is astonishing these days. The progression we are seeing in athletes is at light speed and tricks formerly reserved for the rare mutants are now being thrown with ease by local kids skipping school to ski and ride. (Don’t skip school!) This week I witnessed 16-year-olds throwing double back flips, 19-year-olds spinning corked 10s and a 4-year-old slide a four foot round bar. This progression has pushed the Park crew to step up and create the best possible playground for these athletes and then work backwards to ensure we have a smooth progression. The bar is being set high for the next generation and we are doing our best to evolve at the same rate.

The Parks all got new set-ups this week, some even seeing changes daily. On Whistler Mountain we changed up the top section to include a new barrel bonk in addition to the stump jibs as well as freshening up Bobcat with a never-been-tired-before combo box with a quad kink. There are also new jump styles on Chipmunk and two “Skate Style” spines with log and metal coping for every transfer trick imaginable.

The Choker Park saw the addition of the Quicksilver and Nintendo boxes set up in series as mellow up-boxes as well as the addition of a mini shack booter style step over jump. The Superpipe rebuild has resulted in the best pipe I have ridden in a long time and special props go out to Andy Morrison for his epic 17 hour shift grooming the pipe se we can all rip it this week!

The Terrain Garden continues to be one of the busiest parks with hordes of newbie riders getting their legs on the small jumps, mini spine, boxes and rails offered up in this line. We are hoping to add a few more basic flat boxes to the mix so trick development can progress here too.

The HL Park has basically been split into Lucas Land’s rail line for metal grinders and the main park for jumpers. The left line continues to be the BIG XL line while the right side offers up the L / XL multi-takeoff options.

If you have not been up in the parks yet this year, you are missing out! Don’t wait to see it in next year’s vids, come on up today.

About the film...

LOST AND FOUND is the story of the extraordinary season of 2006.07 as seen through the eyes of world-class skiers and snowboarders. With global drought persisting and ski resorts closing around the world, athletes are forced to follow the snow, sending them deep into the uncharted north country of Alaska and Canada – including of course – the
Whistler area. Filmed almost entirely in North America, LOST AND FOUND is a testament to the terrain and conditions that only exist in the Western Hemisphere.

It wouldn’t be complete without mind-blowing performances by some of our favourite Whistler athletes, Ian McIntosh, Dana Flahr, Kye Petersen, and Victoria Jealouse. McIntosh returns to try one-upping the films best breakthrough performance in last year’s film – his own – while Flahr is pumped on his return from injuries, and it shows. Once again, the Whistler crew pretty much shows the pros how we rock here in Whistler, and well, how last winter rocked us.
This film will take you into the vast, unexplored Tordrillo Mountains of Alaska, proving that some of the best big mountain riding in the world is still completely undiscovered. Athletes take advantage of the bountiful winter in British Columbia, hit disturbing park features in Aspen and score over-the-head powder pillows at Skeena Heliskiing.
The winter of 2007 was feast or famine; LOST AND FOUND documents the feast.

Park & Pipes - Whistler Blackcomb: G TEAM ON B
By: WhistlerBlackcomb

We are very lucky to have 7 dedicated Park groomers on Blackcomb, Marty Gautrey, Oleksander Iskat, Kirby Litzenberger, Jason Josling, Lucas Ouellete & missing from the photos, Tim Austin & Andy Morrison. Marty is the lead hand & Kirby & Andy are our pipe shapers. Our grooming team is the best ever, bringing grooming experience & a Park background to the team. Nothing happens in our parks & pipe without our Groomers who continue to deliver quality building & grooming each night.

The Park staff take care of the hits during the day & the lead hands, Fred Lepage & Eric Gendron, pass on the maintenance & new build requests to Marty & Olex @ the start of their grooming shift. Our Groomers use Pisten Bully snow cats & specifically the Park Bully model. Specialized combing teeth have been added to the Park cat blades for even better ramp shaping when back blading. The Park groomers also use forks which attach to the snow cat blade to move & install the rails. We all owe a huge thank you to our Park groomers on Blackcomb for all their hard work & dedication in bringing you the best Parks & Pipe experience. Here’s a little back ground on our drivers:

Marty Guatrey – Lead hand & grooming the B Park since 1990. Marty started in Lake Louise, made the move to Whistler & has been working in the Parks in winter & Bike Park in the summer. Marty likes working with the younger crew & enjoys skiing what he builds. “I love building jumps. It’s challenging to build & progress with the skiers & snowboarders needs. It’s great to watch people having fun & enjoying my work & I do have a beautiful work environment”.

Oleksander Iskat – Works opposite shifts to Marty & leads the team on Marty’s days off. Olex has been grooming in the Park for 5 years & also has been a key member of the Bike Park in the summer. “I get to build what I want to ride & have the freedom to build an idea. I try to make everything I build as safe as possible. I may not ride the biggest hits but I’m happy to see people progress on our features”.

Jason Josling – 2^nd year in the park grooming. J was mostly in the Terrain Garden last season and now grooms the main Nintendo Park & helps out in the Highest Level when needed. “I’m still learning but feel I’m 100% better than last season. My job takes precision, a skilled eye & attention to detail. I try to make everything safe, rideable & fun”.

left to right: Oleksander, Lucas, Kirby, Marty & Jason

Lucas Ouellette – 1^st season grooming & worked on the Parks day crew last season. Lucas is mostly in the Terrain Garden but is also working on the secret jib & jump section in the Highest Level Park “I like building stuff & hitting it the next day. It can be lonely @ times yet peaceful inside the snow cat. I crank up the punk rock tunes & build the jumps.”

Kirby Litzenberger – 6 seasons @ Whistler & specifically grooming the super pipe. Kirby took a couple of seasons off but we are stoked that he is back on our pipe team once again. Top riders know when Kirby has cut the pipe, it rides perfect. Kirby built his first pipe in 1988. “It takes vigilance to build the best pipe possible. I want to build & maintain the best pipe. Being rated #2 for pipe is not good enough. Southern Cali is all hype”.

Tim Austin – 2^nd year Grooming the Parks & also came from Park day crew. Tim rides what he builds & rides hard. Tim started grooming the Terrain Garden his first season & is now involved in the main Nintendo Park grooming team.

Andy Morrison – Our longest serving groomer with over 16 years of grooming experience, Andy works on the winter & summer Glacier half pipes. Andy has been pipe shaping for over 5 years & has used the Pipe Dragon & the Zaugg Pipe shapers.

PNW by Theory-3 Media and Poorboyz Productions & Distribution: PNW presented by Theory-3 Media and Poorboyz Productions & Distribution
By: Theory3Media

For immediate release:

PNW -

Turn Left, Turn Right, Exit Here, Entering, Welcome to...change the

song, pass the chips, are we there yet? From the creators of

[PHOTO]PLAY, we present to you…PNW... Through the creative vision of

Theory-3 Media, in association with Poorboyz Productions &

Distribution we bring to you a 2 Disc, 2 version, high-definition

skiing documentary covering the uncontrolled locations and the endless

possibilities held by the Pacific Northwest.

PNW will not be just your typical rider segmented film, but rather a

production documenting the travels and locations visited by focusing a

unique group of athletes and an entire season on endless areas of

Alaska, British Columbia, and Washington. The film's layout will be

broken up into segments covering the intricate highway systems, with

the joint travels of a few select athletes and crew linking the areas

of the PNW into a smooth flowing production. With lots of research,

and the impulsive choices of athletes and crew, we expect the body of

the film to be made up of random highway towns and certain specific,

but also unplanned backcountry sledding/touring locales. The skiing

within the film will cover all aspects of backcountry jumping, big

mountain skiing, urban/terrain park skiing, and the ideal combination

of all the above.

→NOTE: We will also include 1-2 additional segments within the PNW

documentary covering special event's, super park shoots, special trips

from outside of the Pacific North West. These segments will be tied

into the film with a PNW hook to be used as a recess between other

segments for issues with weather, athlete schedules, etc within the

Pacific North West.

In addition to the feature 'documentary', the PNW product will include

a 2nd DVD focusing on a re-edited, rider segmented film, with new

footage from outside of the PNW, and a slightly more 'typical' layout.

The riders will be giving his folder's worth of footage, and will

choose each specific shot for his ideal additional segment. It will

also include an athlete commentary covering who, what, when, where and

why, that rider chose those shots for his specific segment. We hope to

achieve two exciting films that can truly cover the dynamic that makes

up the sport of skiing, the Northwest and everything the riders, and

production crew put into their short run snow filled season.

Park & Pipes - Whistler Blackcomb: POW PARKS
By: WhistlerBlackcomb

It's been epic snow in Whistler with powder conditions almost daily. Not that you should be spending that much time in the park in conditions this awesome, but that doesn't stop the crew.

The Park teams have been digging out rails, building, fences, signs, etc. with shovels & snow cats! Lots of new snow & more groomers coming on line means the Parks will expand just in time for the holiday season. Expect to see more rails & hits going in on the Habitat Park as we expand onto the Bobcat line and add more M – L features including some of the new rails.

Over on Blackcomb, the Highest Level Park will also see more of our new technical rails being installed along with more hits & jibs on the main Nintendo park. We should have the Terrain Garden ready just before Christmas.

Huge props to the day & night Park teams for dealing with all the snow. Ullr, you’re doing a great job so far this winter!

My Blog: End the Error
By: DisappearingInk

On the drive back to camp I had a thought. How much fan mail does Mr. T. get these days? He's pretty under the radar now, but brought tears of joy to Mohicans everywhere when he mopped the floor with Stallone in Rocky III. I thought I'd write him tonight. Here's a copy in case I offend him and he hitch-hikes to P.G. and bodyslams me.

Dear Sir Lawrence Turead aka Mr. T.,

In case you hadn't heard, up working off of Mile 90 of the Alaska Highway probing trees looking for pine beetle. The guys I work with are crazier than Murdock. The best way to describe them is if you donated a dozen ATVs and snowmobiles to the people living on the streets around Main and Hastings St. in Vancouver. They're a bunch of wasted ex-cons, ripping around on machines with no regard for personal safety, only stopping to light their cigarettes.

The beetles up here are pretty much on a killing spree. They're spreading fast because of the favorable temperatures due to global warming. I know you're an environmentalist- you said you'd rather walk than fly with that crazy sucka Murdock. If you do want to save Northern BC, you could do a bit more hand to hand combat rather than using your tank, or park the A Team van and instead have the crew take the bus on your next mission. I like to think of us as an elite force designed to eradicate entomological boreal domination. We're a bunch of guys straight out of prison for crimes "We swear we didn't commit." Pretty much, we're the A Team of Northern North America.

Glad to hear you made it through your battle of cancer. Sorry you had to sell your gold chains to pay for your medical bills, but you said it yourself: "You don't need chains when you got a heart of gold." I get all my facts from the National Inquirer that covered your story so well. I tried to do some fundraising, but used the money to buy some gold tire chains for our Ford Super Duty.

I don't get along with a lot of these whiteys in camp. Half are whinos, the other half are complainos. I think a couple of them are starting to befriend me because I'll break trail through the snow and don't eat any of the pork chops. I ain't buying it. I believe it was in the movie Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Fool that you said, "Be somebody, or you'll be somebody's fool. Or was it in the movie, Baby-Punching Supersuckas for Megabot 9 ? I always get those two mixed up.

I know it sounds like I'm messing around but I do care. When I was nineteen I bet a guy ten bucks that he didn't know what your favorite type of music was. How could he have known the answer was Gospel? I was positive he's say Pre-2Unlimited Trantastic Trip-Hop. I paid up, so don't ever say I never stuck my neck out to make a difference.

Yours Fooly,

Crease Mansfoo of the Castlegar gang The Supasuckas Relay Erasers, circa 1998.

Minus twenty five up in the Great White North….

I've finished up my last shift and, this time, I won't be going back. I'm getting a little too attached to rednecks and have to space myself before I become what I fear. On one of the last days one of them came to be about to cry. "Freezer made fun of me because I thought eight and four equals thirteen. I have mentally problems." Looking at me like a teary eyed puppy dog, with the IQ to match, I'm starting to realize how it can sometimes be harder to part with something you hate than something you love. Why? I haven't a damn clue. When I find out I let you know. But by that time I'll own four quads and be paying child support from my fifth marriage. Yep, I gotta go because I'm starting to fit in.

Mentally Yours,

Crease

EVO Ski News: Quest Kids Launch Party
By: Evo_Seattle

10/6/06

When I walked through the door it was already dark and already late. I didn't mean to be late especially since I wasn't that fashionable. Outside evo guests were milling about, talking on the phone, or having a smoke. Inside it was bright and cheery with plenty of activity.

The first thing that struck me was how diverse the crowd was. Black, white, asian, scensters, breakers, tall, short, young, old, everybody was out in full effect that night. There were young kids (I might add that they were hipper than me) running all over the place . The whole vibe felt like a neighborhood block party. There was food, wine, and of course the keg, and then another keg. The music was turned up and the beats were blaring which tempted Fraggle Rock member Remy to show off some of skils on the floor. Then this kid jumped in the circle and surprised all of us with his advanced moves you wouldn't expect from someone so young.

Quest Kids is a local clothing company started by Binh Nguyen after his then 2 year-old niece was in the hospital sick with cancer. He wanted to transfer his artwork into a clothing line that would make kids both sick and healthy happy. Because of his niece's bout with cancer Quest Kids has formed a relationship with Children's Hospital who was onsite, at the event, distributing information. It's a rare sight to see hip people in Seattle promoting kids in such a way.

Shortly after I showed my ID and poured myself a brew the scene suddenly changed into an impromptu hip-hop concert complete with a DJ table set-up and local talent Godspeed. The 3 piece Godspeed got my blood flowing with a few party tracks including the ever-contagious "Say." The next second I was singing along and moving my feet. They entertained the crowd with some inspired cuts. The crowd answered back with hands raised and voices loud.

Transitioning from the circle around the hip-hop crews I crept over to the gallery to see what talent and vision of Quest Kids was all about.
I found colorful paintings on the walls complete with vintage classroom chairs with the writing surface attached on the right. Themes included youth, freedom, simplicity, exploration, and vibrant color. One can see how the paintings and photographs on the wall influnce the clothing design and production.

From the gallery a friend and I headed out to face a night out in Fremont leaving behind a party in motion. It was just the kind of energy that kept me going throughout the night. Later that evening, walking back to the car, I looked through the closed doors at evo and smiled when I saw a crowd still gathered and bodies still dancing. -kirk wimberley

EVO Ski News: MSP Lights it Up with "Push" in Seattle
By: Evo_Seattle

MSP has outdone themselves yet again with the latest add to their repertoire, “Push”. I don’t know about you, but I have a love-hate relationship with this time of year. Some of the sickest video premiers roll into town from some of the most amazing production companies. It’s this time of year when every morning when you’re out the door you’re debating whether you should bust out your new jacket already or if its too early, all the while thinking to yourself, “Nah, it’ll get warm later this afternoon”… but you bring it anyway. It’s this time of year when temperatures drop and the first snowfall across the country teases us intermittently… then the next week it feels like the summer again. This time of year, all your friends and industry folk alike amass in one place to share the one undying passion for the VP. That’s the love.

On Friday, September 29, 2006, Seattle, Washington was lucky enough to experience an evening of emotional highs from what can easily be dubbed as one of the season’s most epic films. I hadn’t even seen the trailer, and all I was going off of was friends saying, “Oh dude, I know some guy in a different time zone who just got out and said it was siiiiick”. Yeah, thanks. Anyhow, Fremont Studios was gracious enough to open its doors and roll out the red carpet for an evening of what I was soon to find out to be a night of awesomeness. Pre-show, the mood was super chill, people slowly started to trickle in as the doors opened. I actually looked away for a bit, then turned the corner and all of a sudden, mobs! Lines ceased to mean anything and everyone was so stoked to get inside. How can you blame them? Ingrid Backstrom herself was present and accounted for signing autographs and kickin’ it with co-star Sammy Carlson. Eric Pollard? Don’t think that I wasn’t keeping my eyes open for the Line Team Shredder, but he was no where to be seen that night except for on the screen droppin’ it hot as usual.

I don’t need to sit here and tell you how rad the flick was. Okay, it was sick. Before you run out to buy it though, I’ll giver a go at ranting about the After Party. Following the movie, I was swept away with the masses as we took a short trek down the street to the nerve center of evo (www.evogear.com) a Seattle based retail and online lifestyle and apparel shop. So at this point, we’ve got a mob of stoked skiers, an open bar, Vancouver Hip Hop legends Sweatshop Union, and well, you guessed it, from there the night transitions to non-stop ski talk, break battles, pulling out all the stops , and 6 empty kegs… and that was only night 2 of a 3 night movie weekend for evo! Let the pictures do the talking!

by Molly Hawkins, part of the evo crew!

My Blog: Hucking Meat and Doing Kickflips
By: DisappearingInk

Another early morning I jump into a truck and head into the bush. We make our usual stop at a gas station for the fellas to buy their cheese danishes, bologna sandwiches, and Pepsi Big Slams. I'm not driving today, our chemical mixer is providing that service. On this contract, after we cut the trees, we need to spray a little pesticide on the stump to prevent it from growing back. You're probably wondering if it's healthy working with poison. Of course it is. They even told us that salt is more harmful than this stuff (glyphosate). My next question was, "How come we just don't squirt salt water on the stumps then?"

We get onto the logging road to our block, still in the dark. Three kilometers in we get surprised by an oncoming logging driving down the middle of the road, we pull as far to the side as we can. Two of the wheels start sinking into the soft shoulder of the road. The mixer starts panicking. "shi*t, shi*t, shi*t! Hold on!" I knew as well as he did what was about to happen. Our truck was about to kickflip down the bank. In my head I was yelling, "Rick Hansen, Rick Hansen, Rick Hansen!" The truck tipped onto the passenger side then started flipping out of control. Something hit me really hard. The last thing I remember was bologna sandwiches slicing through the air in front of me.

When I came to, the truck was lying on the passenger side. I was still in my seat with my belt on, but my head was lying in broken glass on the ground. I heard The Observator call out from the back seat, "Man, I can't believe no one got hurt." He then spit the glass out of his mouth, which landed on Honest Jon below him. He unbuckled his seatbelt, which dropped him onto Honest John again. I was trying to tell everyone I was hurt, but nothing came out. My glasses had come off but were sitting in front of me on the ground. I put them on and could see a couple of bologna sandwiches mixed in glass and dirt, and a girl trying to break the front windshield to get us out. I didn't want to move, but knew it would take them hours to get me up out of a rolled truck and up a steep bank on a spine board. My chest and back hurt. I managed to keep my back and neck straight as I stood up and walked out the windshield.

The other crew had shown up and I got into their truck. I managed to wheeze out the word, "Hospital." They said they had to clean up some of the mess first. I just started hitting the horn. The supervisor told us that you are not allowed to stand at the side of a logging road mainline. Well I guess we should all just jump back into the truck. How about you take me to the hospital? After waiting all too long we were on our way. I got there and it was the usual routine: throw on a collair, put him on a stretcher, wheel him into emergency, then check on him three to five hours later. After I got back from the X-rays, the doctor told me that my back wasn't broken. There was an awkward pause, and then he left.

Some coworker drove me home. He told me I was going to be okay. I asked him on what exactly he based that statement. He repeated I was going to be okay- everyone's a doctor. I had to get tucked in, as I couldn't get into bed by myself. I thought about all the times I've hurt myself in the past- those were good times. It was all worth it. I was skiing and having fun. This wasn't fun. I don't want to be another car insurance statistic. I'm still lying in my bed, packed with ice like the tenderized piece of meat I am. It's time for me to get up, see if I have the mobility to change clothes and wash the glass out of my sideburns. With any luck I'll be back to hitting senior citizens with jerry cans in no time.

An update on the jerry can story: The Observator got a little carried away when he mentioned what happened to our boss. My boss said he heard the jerry can went through a windshield and bounced off some old guy's face, who was covered in blood. I must admit, it sounds a lot cooler.

Whatever you're doing to hurt yourself, make sure it's worth it.

My Journal: Vic night warrior mission!
By: Kyle

Well that was not an average wednesday...

4pm - Leave Whistler, hit lots of traffic...

6:50 - Just make the 7 ferry

9pm - hit u-vic campus to find everyone super wasted

10pm - find ourselves in tapa's bar eating and drinking

12pm - find outselves in Lucky (sweet bar)

1ish - Jesse and myself take on the foozeball champs of the night... epic battle with a really rough start... however, team colonies pulled through for the victory

1ish - I order a triple gouse on the rocks and end up with a triple of jager on the rocks... apparently people don't make those kinds of orders and it was confusing... so we solved the problem with more shots... good call.

1:30ish - After watching British Invasion on the tv's in the bar I figured I learned the moves and proceded to dance the night away. At this point we also lose some of the crew, the girls head home.

1:30ish - Ryan claims he's unsure about newbies. makes him nervous... I slap him and more shots are completed.

no longer sure of time: Jesse and myself start challenging everyone around at fooze. We distroy. victory dancing on the dance floor. Elisa tells me I need to settle down with my life because I'm too out of control and party too much. Unsure with what to reply with I buy her I shot.

Finally the night comes to an end and I head out the door telling Jesse to send me the bill in the morning.... ?? awesome.

7:30am - wake up... sprint to the ferry. Been in vic for too long and need out.

9am - on the ferry and enjoying the buffet as Mike ask's me "So what have we learned from this" my reply "I should not be left alone when wasted. It's bad for the team"

2pm - back at work.

Snowboarding Blogs: The Blackcomb Glacier - Two Words...HOLY S**T
By: Canadian1st

This is definately worh writing about people! This is going to be a long one indeed, but I guarantee it will be worth while. So I just got back from riding the Camp of Champions park with the ever so amazing Whistler Valley Snowboard Club, and although I have come out of it with an injured back and a very painful sun burn, it was all amazing as could be!

Day 1
I met up with my friend Ryan (Smurf) Espiritu and the rest of the crew at 8:00 AM down at the bottom of Blackcomb. We got our passes which had this cool little orange and black sticker that had the Camp of Champions logo on it which made it possible for us to ride their amazingly smurftastic park! My first run through was a piece of crap, so I would rather never speak of it again! But besides the fact, the park had 4 HUGE and I mean HUGE boxes that were a massive 40 ft. long! They also had a huge box that was atleast 32' X 32' that we had dubbed that dance floor. I rocked a massively styling noseslide across one of the 40 ft boxes. I guess it was good from the scream I heard from Ryan when he wet himself. I then went and learnt how to hop on from the side of rails on a 6" wide Down Flat rail that I beleive I eventually nailed after trying it 6 or 7 times.

Day 2
Day 2 is by far the day that could have ended it all. It started great. I was learning how to do pops so I could start spinning on tables and I was doing some more hop ons on a flat down rail. Then it came to the point of the day right after lunch where I hit the down 40 ft. box. I fell on my back, and pulled or knotted a muscle or something, it hurt like a mofo! I was so angry! I was going to try and ride the 20' Down Double Barrel rail on the next run through! But I couldnt instead I just spent an hour and a bit ranting on a camera!

Day 3
Heres a very valuable lesson to learn here, always be good to your mother! She made things all better for me! My back was killing me the night before, I went back to my place and had my mom massage my back pretty much all night. So I arrived at Blackcomb base and I realised I had left my snowboard back at my place, so I had to drive back, get my board, and get back to Blackcomb base. This is where the fun starts! I was having an awesome morning, hitting everything! Sadly Ryan had to head ppout at 11:30 and head for the base. But in the afternoon, I finally got to hit the Double Barrel that I had been wanting to hit for the past 2 days! And boy was it sweet! The thing was hella hard to stay on but I nailed it twice out of the dozen or so times I tried to noseslide it. The past days had lead iup to that moment and it KILLED!

So that was the end of it all! It was an amazing experience. I got to ride with some awesome guys like Ryan and Trevor (your horny devil). My coaches, Rob and Joe and Ollie, were awesome. Getting to watch Tom Kato, Rusty (thanks for all that support today on the double barrel!) and the pros Dennis Bannock and TJ Schneider (NO IDEA HOW TO SPELL THE NAMES LET ME KNOW HOW) was an amazing experience! PEACE!

By: blackwerewolf

This a nitty beat*

*boing*

Nitty:
Here we go again
Ghetto field USA
You know I go by the name Nitty right?
I gotta introduce you to
anotha muthaf*cka in my squad right
This nigga go by the name of Joc
He resides in College park right
But for right now
what we gotta do for yall
we gotta give yall a hit

Verse 1:
Niggas in my face
damn near every day
aska million questions like Joc where you stay
tell 'em College Park
where they chop cars
In 20 grand spend a grand at the bar
Just bought a zone
J's on my feet
I'm on that Patrone so get like me
'69 cutlass wit the bucket seats
beat in my trunk ballin just for the freaks
Catch me in the hood
Posted by the store
pistol in my lap on the phone countin dough
If ya girl choose
let her do her thang
just like her mama nice ass nice brain
Everbody love me
I'm so fly
Nigga throw the dueces everytime i ride by
I know you wonder why
I'm so cool
Dont ask me just
do what you do

Chorus 2x:
meet me in the Trap
it's goin down
meet me in the mall
it's goin down
meet me in the club
it's goin down
anywhere you meet me guaranteed to go down

Verse 2:
Verse number two
Do the damn thang
Cubes on my neck
Pocket fulla Ben Franks
when Im in the mall
hoes just pause
Pop a few tags gimme dat on da wall
time to flip the work
make the block bump
Boys N da Hood
Call me Black by my trunk
Dope Boy magic
7 days a week
number one record
long as Nitty on the beat
Ooh I think they like me
betta yet I know
LIghts, camera, action
when I walk through the door
Niggas know my crew we certified stars
Valet in the front bout 35 cars
Bitches in the back
Black in the coupe
Girls likin Girls
time to recruit
if you gotta problem say it to my face
we can knuckle up anytime any place

Chorus 2x:
meet me in the Trap
it's goin down
meet me in the mall
it's goin down
meet me in the club
it's goin down
anywhere you meet me guaranteed to go down

verse 3:
Time to set it off
Let these niggas know
Have they ever seen a Chevy wit them butterfly doors
I ride real slow no need to speak
gotta make sure they see the buckets on my feet
Feds on my trail they don't think I know
I keep my hands clean cuz i never touch do
Everytime I see 'em look 'em in they eyes
Ask me how I know? It's me surprise
Put it in the air rep where you stay
Take a step back blow the Kush in they face
stuntin is a habit
let 'em see the karats
I'mma make it rain nigga i ain't 'fraid to share it

Chorus 2x:
meet me in the Trap
it's goin down
meet me in the mall
it's goin down
meet me in the club
it's goin down
anywhere you meet me guaranteed to go down

Nitty:
Yea
Young Joc
Nitty strikes again
This a nitty beat Play maker
So So Def muthaf*cka
Beat fades out
